[Ahh, Route 1.

Lovely, scenic Route 1.

Kirino's Pokémon (his Swablu, and a recently acquired Milotic) are both out to enjoy the lovely weather, and Kirino...

... is currently being harassed by a small army of ghost-types. There's a good number of Shuppets about as well as a Misdreavus that's taken a liking to yanking on his pigtails.

Kirino really, really just looks like he's resigned himself to all this, however, rather than panicking and flailing and trying to drive them away like he was a few minutes ago.]

You've got to be kidding m--OW! [Stupid Misdreavus.]

[Meanwhile, Kariya is lemon-sour. This is totally backwards; why does senpai get along so well with creepy, little blobs?

Sentret will be sociable for him, though, don't worry. The normal-type, who'd been standing back decisively from all the ghosts, drops onto all fours to scamper over and meet Swablu half-way, sniffing and chrring at it.]

Yeah. That's Ceres...

I think she was almost happy to be caught, as crazy as everything is in the grass right now.

[You know, with all the stupid, pig-haired ghost-magnets wandering around.]

... In all honesty, I wouldn't blame her in the slightest.

I think those ghosts will stay away now, thankfully. [Alto's more than happy to allow the Sentret to investigate, and trills in response. There might be an offer of friendship in there somewhere as well, but that's probably because Alto is willing to extend friendship to almost anyone--]

Unless you attract another horde of them.

[If it happens again, he's going to have to conclude the obvious: Kirino-senpai is haunted.

For now, though, he'll just watch as Sentret goes up on its back legs and cheerfully chatters with Alto. New friends are nice to have. Especially as self-possessed as her trainer's Purrloin is.]

I thought the Pokémon on this route were supposed to be easy-going or something...

... I sincerely hope I don't. [One's more than enough, please and thank you.

Constance eventually meanders over and lies down, listening to Ceres and Alto chatter. Every now and then, the Milotic croons her own input on whatever's being said.]

That's what I thought... Though, maybe that thing they said about the Entralink breaking even more has something to do with it?

So, maybe it's teleporting Pokémon around, too?

That'd be a huge hassle. We'll never know what's going to jump out at us next...

[Kariya's mood just keeps getting better and better. He'll have his own crowd of Shuppets at this rate.

But maybe Ceres can ward them off. She seems peached at the meet-and-greet going on, especially when the big Milotic comes to settle down with them. That one's way too huge to belong around here, but it's being friendly, so!]

If it's any consolation, aside from types, they don't generally seem that strong?

[He's trying to be helpful... Alto and Constance seem to be rather content with socializing for the moment, so Kirino will let them be.]
